I have an example from today. I have a job where I must ask people questions before they catch public transport. This man refused but instead of saying he didn't want to do it, he said he didn't have the time.

He did have time though because it was only 2 questions that took 30 seconds. It made me real angry when he didn't have time but his bus wasn't due for 5 minutes.

I knew what he meant but he didn't say the true thing that he didn't want to answer.


But you knew the reason for your anger - he lied to you.

He lied and also a lot of the time when someone doesn't answer they aren't really responding to the other person as a person, which I think happens a lot when people don't understand you, they're less likely to respond to you as a full person.
